A scathing, sardonic exploration of Silicon Valley tech culture, laying bare the greed, hubris, and retrograde politics of an industry that aspires to radically transform society for its own benefit. This enlightening audiobook is a must-listen for anyone interested or involved in the tech industry. At the height of the start-up boom, journalist Corey Pein set out for Silicon Valley with little more than a smartphone and his wits. His goal: to learn how such an overhyped industry could possibly sustain itself as long as it has.

Deep dive into a mind of a conspiracy theories fan
Revisado: 05-22-20
Loved the description of personal experience of Silicon Valley life and overall startup culture with disappointing behavior of VCs, overhyped techies not allowed to show any sign of exhaustion and not-exactly-law-abiding tech companies on their way to growth and competition.
But the last third or so of the book ruined it to me, as the author apparently decided to grab some of the hype himself and after found a handful of egalitarian representatives of tech industry decided to extrapolate it on the whole field and increase the degree by calling them and all alike or however connected to them Nazis. Just brilliant example of an outrageously poor "journalism", I beg for forgiveness actual journalists reading this for using the word towards this.
If not the actually interesting first half of the book this thing wouldn't be worth even finishing, let alone a review.
